Thanks, that’s very kind of you.
Honestly, the part about writing that a lot of us authors don’t show very well is how often it feels like lighting ourselves on fire while pulling our hair out.
But when we get to connect w/ readers, it’s all worth it :)
Looking forward to sharing my WIPs w/ you.
I’ve got a signup link at Readers.KEBartlet.com. Always on the lookout for more readers :)
Five books out and a couple more coming out this spring.
Part therapy, part manifestation, I'm writing a book series that has a situation where an entirely new SCOTUS has to be formed bc the old one & most of Congress is gone.
The person appointing them is a sane, liberal (as in opposite of authoritarian), veteran, gay President of the United States.
Been doing it, but for what it’s worth, the conversion isn’t necessarily there.
The demographic that might enjoy short blog posts / Substack articles may not enjoy a novel.
I feel like a better approach is to write articles because you like to or for the practice & enjoy the passive conversion.
We are screwed….
"... the bravery, ingenuity, and resilience of the Ukrainian people is beyond anything we could have imagined—and we write fiction for a living." — Two of my fav authors, David Bruns & J.R. Olson, in one of their 2022 books.
It's sad that we live in a time where the events shock us fiction authors.
Chinga la fucking Migra!

Reading is a great form of resistance.
F*ck Fascists! Don’t give in to their desire to control knowledge and thoughts.
Chinga La Migra! en Inglés: Fuck ICE!

After the White House complained about an unflattering photo of Karoline Leavitt, it was removed from AFP and Getty’s systems. This is the photo in question. Please do not repost it. 👇

Gahh, would love to have a work in a pack or bundle with you!
I fight fascism with words and spice too!
And yeah,
trans people = humans
Humans = deserving of human rights
and by the “transitive property”:
Trans people = deserving of human rights.

Instead of "Sex, Drugs, Rock & Roll", I've got "Sex, Spies, and Guns going Boom!"
Coming out on March 31st.
There’s a line in the CIA propaganda series The Recruit that I think fits here really well.
Butchering it but: The CIA will sell you the solution to the problem it created.
We are currently a deeply unserious country 🎪
Is it happening again?
But seriously, be kind to yourself.
Some things will get harder as you get older & that’s okay. You’ve got other stuff working better.
Plus, for the haters who don’t get the premature wear & tear from the hard stuff.
Fck them. They’ve never had to get hurt defending freedom like we have.
(2/2)
Happy Early Birthday!
If you’re a math nerd, with a terrible sense of humor like me, you could say that you’re not a double digit age but that you’ve been 9 three times?
